Possible Id

[Deutsch am Herzen]

i was wondering if it's even possible to ID this hookah. i know it looks egyptian (im guessing, kinda new to all the different styles), but not sure if its possible to figure out a brand. i bought it from a local while i was in iraq.

its 30" tall and built like a tank. i think this one weighs about twice what my other hookah does. every part of the stem disassembles; ice chamber, top part of the stem, valve/hose chamber, and the lower part of the stem inside the base.

Looks more Syrian/Turkish, with a Chinese/Egyptian jar on it.

It almost looks like a model of Group Elegance they used to sell.

I was going to say the stem looks similar to Syrians I've seen. The ice bucket and hose look like they are mitsuba (Chinese).

Didnt mitsuba go under?

But yeah i agree with everyone else, stem looks syrian.
The hose port gives it away, personally ive only seen that port design on syrian and chinese stems.
But hey as long as it smokes good, right?
